In an update to her 59,000 Instagram followers on Wednesday, Lynsey shared how she was "over the moon" with how things are going in Germany.
She said: "Day 3 of 5 today… full body hyperthermia today, the treatment that needs the most deep breaths in and out to stay in it for the 2 hours.
"Over the moon. My scan results, we’re good once again the path I am taking is one that truly works for me I just smile now when I think of it and feel safe in the belief of what I do….
"I have always said I work better with natural things and sure enough my sensitivity test came back with 12 natural compounds 10 of which were mostly in the 70% and 80% ranges of being sensitive to help me…Anything over 60% would be amazing to try so seeing 75 and 85 was a dream
"And so it’s opened many more treatments to try here. And this week is intense.
"These are treatments I would be allowed bring home if I had someone to help me get access to the vein.
"I knew had to ask the hospital at home for help even though I knew in my gut what answer would be when I asked before I came back here, asking about helping me with infusions I get here:
“'We can only infuse approved chemotherapies here due to Hospital insurance. We do not have the ability to infuse vitamins, supplements, or other complementary cancer therapies.'
"And I respect their hands are tied, but who’s aren’t? This is what I need to find out?"
She continued: "I need more than the amazing vit c and curcumin that’s now available in infusion places. I need someone available to put the different natural infusions that are tailored to my results.
"That I can bring home and have sent over to me. I need someone who can administer them.
It’s back to the drawing board? Who do I speak to then? Who has the power? Would Ireland leaders care?
"Have I proven enough the past 17months, that this line of alternative treatment works for me.? The funds for Germany will be gone and what does one do then? And I ask all these questions in a honestly respectful way.
"Centre of holistic excellence please Germany is an EU country does that mean there’s a chance ireland that we can have the same access to give us all a chance when other routes are exhausted?
"With much, love, belief and healing happy Wednesday beautiful world xx."
